Spooky MintyPi
Posted: Fri Dec 14, 2018 12:12 pm
I wanted to be a little fancy, and not go with standard Altoids. After searching every local store, my choices in the right size container were Bacon Scented soap, and Oujia Mystifying mints. I think I made the right choice, but I wonder how it might have gone the other way. I had a lot of fun building it, and I'm ready to build bigger (and smaller) and better things. Unfortunately for me that means I have to sell this one to fund the next one.
This one will be up on eBay later tonight. https://www.ebay.com/itm/292868771200 . My next project will be a Burger King Gameboy Color. I already have the case, the screen, and started PCB layout. (Of course now I hear they're doing that for us...)
I hope you enjoy looking. Thanks, -Hippo
In keeping with the spooky theme I printed all the parts in glow in the dark plastic.
The Mystifying Mints tin was the coolest I could find. I do really like it more than stock Altoids. The mints tasted okay too...
I found the perfect little zip case to carry it around in.
I opted to do the headphone jack mod. I only really have time to play at night, and don't want to keep my other awake.
Headphones means the switch had to go on the back.
Various Power Lights.
